“All seven people have been rescued from a stricken cable car high above a remote Pakistan valley，” a spokesman for the state run emergency services said.
Pakistani authorities said army commandos(突击队), with the help of civilians, made the final rescues after an operation lasting hours. Floodlights were installed and a ground based operation reached the remaining two people late on Tuesday more than 12 hours after their cable car was damaged, leaving it hanging unsteadily at an angle.
A helicopter had earlier plucked two children to safety before darkness. High winds meant the air rescue had to be called off. Rescuers used the cable, keeping the cable car from plunging(突然下落) into the valley as a zip line, to rescue three more children. Relatives of those trapped prayed while watching the operation and anxious crowds gathered on both sides of the valley, which is in a mountainous area of Battagram, about 125 miles north of Islamabad.
Several military helicopters had flown sorties earlier in the day and an airman was lowered by a set of bands to deliver food, water and mandos could be seen on local TV trying to lower themselves on ropes from the helicopters to the cable car. An expert confirmed that the rescue was delicate because the wind created by the helicopters' blades could further weaken cables holding the car up in the sky.
The children trapped were teenage boys studying at the government high school. The school is located in a mountainous area and there are no safe crossings, so it's common to use the chairlift. People who live in the northern mountainous regions of Pakistan often use chairlifts for transport from one village to another. In 2017, 10 people were killed when a chairlift cable broke, sending passengers plunging into a valley in a mountain hamlet near the capital, Islamabad.
(　　) 4. What is the main idea of Paragraphs 1 and 2
A. The result of the rescue.
B. The underlying accident in the rescue.
C. The following settlement of the rescue.
D. The background information of the valley.
(　　) 5. How was the rescue conducted by army commandos and civilians
A. By cable car. B. By floodlights.
C. By helicopter. D. By a zip line.
(　　) 6. Why did the air rescue has to be called off
A. Because the air rescue staff were incompetent.
B. Because the cable was left hanging at a dangerous angle.
C. Because the weather condition was tough with heavy rain.
D. Because the wind created by the helicopters' blades is strong.
(　　) 7. In which column of the website can we read this passage
A. Life Philosophy. B. Social News.
C. Business Insight. D. Book Reviews.
C[2025湖南师范大学附属中学开学考]
Are you chillaxed enough Recently, having a sense of ease seems to have become one of the most important qualities that a person should have to be seen as successful and attractive.
The discussion arose from a previous incident. A family's luggage(行李) was rejected for shipment, but they continued their journey like nothing bad had happened. A girl witnessed their calm attitude in difficult circumstances and shared the story online. She described their attitude as being “chillaxed”， meaning staying calm in the face of barriers. With the word gaining more attention, an increasing number of people have shared their chillaxed lives online.
In psychology, maintaining a sense of ease is similar to “psychological resilience”， which refers to the ability to effectively adjust and adapt to tough situations, particularly by being mentally, emotionally and behaviorally flexible to pressure. It stresses a drive for success, steadily advancing toward a goal, and being prepared to accept any outcome without complaining.
In both work and study, many people get anxious or even collapse when faced with short term bottlenecks. Therefore, they hurriedly seek immediate changes, which in most cases prevents them from achieving the desired result. Rather than going after immediate outcomes, it's more significant to maintain steady, gradual progress and adopt a long term mindset.
Interestingly, as the Internet becomes filled with hashtags(标签) like “only those who are chillaxed are attractive”， many people are beginning to feel anxious because they don't fit that description. Still, it's important to note that while a state of ease may be favorable, there's nothing wrong with not being chillaxed. Indeed, many people achieve their goals by pushing themselves to their limits, though feeling frustrated at pressure from time to time. But as long as you are fighting for your ideal life, you're definitely someone who's appealing and respectable no matter whether you're chillaxed or not.
(　　) 8. Why is the family's experience mentioned in the passage
A. To introduce the origin of the word “chillaxed”．
B. To show the family's ability to stay chillaxed.
C. To highlight the importance of being chillaxed.
D. To argue against the rejection of luggage shipment.
(　　) 9. What's highlighted in psychological resilience
A. Quick forgetting of challenges. B. Dependence on external factors.
C. Flexibility and steady progress. D. Seeking quick fixes to problems.
(　　)10. What's the author's attitude toward being chillaxed
A. Doubtful. B. Objective. C. Dismissive. D. Unclear.
(　　)11. Which of the following is the best title for the passage
A. A Chillaxed Attitude: Shortcut Toward Success
B. Remaining Chillaxed Helps to Settle Conflicts
C. Why Being Chillaxed Does Not Guarantee Happiness
D. Being Chillaxed: The Art of Psychological Strength
D[2025滕州一中月考]
According to new research, babies recognize pretence and around half of children can pretend themselves by 12 months. The study, led by the University of Bristol, shows for the first time how children's awareness and grasp of pretence in its various forms develops from birth to three years old.
The lead author said, “Our findings highlight how pretending is a complex, evolving(进化的) process which begins very early on in life, helping their cognitive(认知的) and social skills to advance. Pretence is a key part of children's learning, creativity, making friends, and understanding of other people. This study maps its many different stages and types.”
The findings are based on results from a survey of 900 parents of children aged from birth up to three year old from the UK, the US, Australia, and Canada. The earliest reported age when children understand pretence was four months and by the age of 13 months, around half were reported to discern pretence by others. Around half of 12 month olds were reported to be pretending regularly themselves.
Researchers identified 18 different types of pretence which emerge and progress in the early years. One year olds' pretence was shown to initially involve their bodies, for example, pretending to sleep. They may also gesture objects and actions, such as brushing their teeth with a finger or pretending with objects for their intended purpose like drinking out of an empty cup.
The researchers hope their research will help parents and preschool teachers understand and identify which types of pretence are appropriate to try with children at certain ages, supporting their learning, creativity, and friendships.
The lead author said, “With further research, the findings have the potential to be used as a diagnostic tool for developmental differences in early years. This could ultimately help parents, preschool educators, and medical professionals better understand how to play with children at different stages of development.”
(　　)12. How can pretence impact babies
A. By enhancing their physical strength.
B. By boosting their cognitive development.
C. By making them more resistant to illness.
D. By teaching them to read and write earlier.
(　　)13. What does the underlined word “discern” in Paragraph 3 mean
A. Recognize. B. Force. C. Interrupt. D. Criticize.
(　　)14. What might the findings bring
A. New learning skills in science.
B. Changes in secondary education.
C. Better play methods for primary students.
D. Ways to assess developmental differences.
(　　)15. What can be the best title for the text
A. How Babies Learn to Pretend
B. The Process of Pretence in Children
C. New Insights into Early Childhood Pretence
D. The Role of Pretence in Human Development

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
We've all been there before—you're in conversation, things are getting along nicely. __16__ At that moment, your mind goes completely blank, you don't know what to say, and you can sense the other person's eyes wandering as they look for someone else to talk to. That scenario(场面) is terrible, so here are three tips to make sure that you never run out of things to say in conversation again.
Firstly, when you find yourself in that situation where your mind has gone blank, play “Reminds Me of”. That just means that you look to the environment around you and say, “You know, that reminds me of …” and then fill in the blank. __17__ And it can also work as a follow up when someone finishes telling a story, which is how many groups of friends interact all the time.
Second, when you ask questions, keep them open ended as often as possible. __18__ So rather than saying, “Oh, you're from Toronto. Do you like it there？”， you might say, “How do you like Toronto I'm curious to hear more about it.” You should get the other person talking about the things that they like, which is going to open up more conversational topics.
__19__ This is the third tip. If you're in a new group and conversation dies after initial pleasantries, a great question is, “How do you guys all know one another？” There's almost always some kind of story that conversation can build from. If you're only speaking to one person, you can say instead, “So what's your story？” The great thing about this question is that it is so open ended that the other person will probably guide you towards new topics, usually responding with something like, “You mean what do I do for work or what do I like to do for fun？” __20__
A. Ask them about their exciting plans for the future.
B. It is great for opening new conversational topics.
C. Then out of nowhere, the awkward silence occurs.
D. You'd better avoid questions inviting a one word response.
E. That's because people don't like to talk to others different from themselves.
F. For the worst scenario when conversation stops suddenly, use saving questions.
G. His or her tone and enthusiasm will tell you the best angle of conversation to continue with.
16. _______ 17. _______ 18. _______ 19. _______ 20. _______

Careers in science are generally believed to be too complex for students who aren't talented or clever enough, but Scott Kelly, former Commander of the International Space Station, would prove it's __21__．
As a kid, he was abstracted and uninterested in science and all other __22__ as well. He couldn't __23__ what the teachers were saying, spending most of his time in school daydreaming. Therefore, he earned terrible grades and barely graduated from high school, and he even thought he would never __24__ his dreams.
That all __25__ when he picked up and read The Right Stuff, Tom Wolfe's classic account of the pioneering Americans who first explored space. __26__ at last, he was determined to be an astronaut, which meant doing well in science classes. So that day, he __27__ his mind to do well in it.
After so many years of daydreaming, it wouldn't be __28__. But he started thinking about it like a game. The more he __29__ his study skills, the more he gained and the better he got. __30__， it became a __31__ with himself to see how good he could get. No one was more surprised than him when a __32__ daydreamer started getting straight A's in science, which is essential to be an astronaut.
So we need to stop __33__ the statement that science is just too hard. If you're students who have been told “you are not a science person” or “your brain doesn't think that way”， just __34__ the comments! Everyone who wants to can learn this stuff—they just have to be __35__ to do the work.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
It had been a challenging but rewarding term, filled with hard work and a thirst for knowledge. As I handed in my final assignment and saw it was graded A, a sense of pride and satisfaction washed over me. Little did I know that my accomplishments had not gone unnoticed by my family, who had been closely observing my progress.
On the first day of summer vacation, my mother told me excitedly that we would pay a visit to Macau the next day to cheer for my academic progress. When I got the good news, I felt on top of the world and my spirits soared. As I lay in bed that night, a mix of anticipation and delight welled up in my heart, and I slid into a dream filled sleep, eagerly awaiting the arrival of the coming adventure.
After we arrived in Macau, my parents said that we would first visit the Macau Tower. Macau Tower, built in the late 19th century, is a historic landmark that showcases the rich architectural heritage of the city. It is also considered one of the top tourist attractions in the region. Upon hearing the inspiring news, I bounced up and down with joy. But then I felt a bit uneasy because of my fear of heights.
Inside the lift, my palms grew sweaty as anxiety consumed me. I paced back and forth in the tower lift, unsure of whether I would have the courage. After the lift reached the specific floor, I gasped in horror. The floor here was made of glass, so one could appreciate the height of the tower and take a real adventure. Seeing my family both take out their phones to shoot the grand views, I felt under pressure. Then my mother smiled at me and said delightedly, “Just take it easy and you can do it.”

1—5 BABAC　6—10 DBACB　11—15 DBADC
A
【语篇导读】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了几部2024年最佳电影。
1. 细节理解题。根据Twisters (July 19)中The new version of the 90s movie Twister可知，Twisters是翻拍的电影。
2. 细节理解题。根据Inside Out 2(June 14)中“The gang is back together in this animated follow up”和Mufasa: The Lion King (Dec. 20)中“This time, Barry Jenkins directs the cartoon”可知，这两部电影都是动画电影。
3. 文章出处题。根据第一段“Welcome to our guide of the Best Movies of 2024, featuring every Certified Fresh movie as they come in week by week！”以及下文可知，这篇文章主要介绍了几部2024年最佳电影，所以可能来自娱乐网站。
B
【语篇导读】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章描述了巴基斯坦一偏远山谷高空中的缆车发生故障后，救援人员经过数小时的努力，成功救出被困的七人。
4. 段落大意题。第一段通过发言人之口讲出了被困七人均已从缆车中获救的消息，结合第二段中made the final rescues可知，第一、二段主要介绍了营救的结果。
5. 细节理解题。根据第三段中“A helicopter had earlier plucked two children to safety before darkness.”可知，救援是由军方突击队员和平民使用直升机进行的。
6. 细节理解题。根据第三段中“High winds meant the air rescue had to be called off.”以及第四段中“the wind created by the helicopters' blades could further weaken cables holding the car up in the sky”可知，直升机螺旋桨产生的风可能会进一步削弱支撑缆车悬空的缆绳的支撑力，因此空中救援不得不取消是因为直升机叶片产生的风很强。
7. 文章出处题。根据第一段引用发言人的话以及文章描述了巴基斯坦一偏远山谷高空中的缆车发生故障后，救援人员经过数小时的努力，成功救出被困人员可知，文章属于社会新闻范畴，因此我们可以在网站的“社会新闻”专栏读到这篇文章。
C
【语篇导读】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要探讨了chillaxed(放松的)态度的重要性及其意义，同时指出保持这种态度虽有益但并非成功的唯一途径。
8. 推理判断题。第二段先提到一个家庭行李被拒运但仍若无其事继续旅行这一事件，然后一位见证者在网上分享了他们的故事，用chillaxed来描述他们，从而引出“chillaxed”这个词的来源。所以提到这个家庭的经历是为了介绍chillaxed这个词的起源。
9. 细节理解题。根据第三段可知，psychological resilience是在心理、情感和行为上对压力具有灵活性，并且强调对成功的追求，稳步朝着目标前进。
10. 观点态度题。根据最后一段可知，作者认为只要为理想生活奋斗，无论是否“chillaxed”都值得尊敬。作者的态度是客观的。
11. 标题归纳题。通读全文可知，文章先由一个事件引出“chillaxed”这个词，接着解释其在心理学上类似于“psychological resilience”，并阐述了“psychological resilience”的内涵，强调了在面对困难时保持冷静、灵活和稳步前进的重要性，最后表明作者对“chillaxed”的客观态度。所以D项“保持冷静：心理力量的艺术”能很好地概括文章内容，既提到了“chillaxed”，又体现了其与心理力量的关系。
D
【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项关于儿童早期识别假装行为并进行假装行为的研究，包括研究过程、研究发现及研究意义等。
12. 细节理解题。根据第二段中“The lead author said … helping their cognitive and social skills to advance.’”可知，假装可以促进婴儿的认知发展。
13. 词义猜测题。根据画线词上文可知，上文提到孩子理解假装的最早年龄是四个月，由此可推知，画线词与A项“Recognize(识别)”意思相近，孩子理解假装行为的最早年龄是四个月，到十三个月大的时候大半的孩子能识别假装行为。
14. 细节理解题。根据最后一段可推知，这些发现可以被用作婴幼儿早期发育差异的诊断方法。
15. 标题归纳题。通读全文可知，文章主要介绍了一项关于儿童早期识别假装行为并进行假装行为的研究，故C项“对儿童早期假装行为的新见解”适合作为文章标题。
第二节
16—20 CBDFG
【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了三个谈话技巧，可以确保在谈话中永远不会无话可说。
16. 上文描述对话原本顺利，下文则描述了交流不畅的情境，导致对方失去兴趣。C项“然后不知怎么的，尴尬的沉默出现了”承上启下，与上文“things are getting along nicely”对比出现转折，自然引出下文“mind goes completely blank”的场景。
17. 上文介绍“Reminds Me of”的方法技巧，下文提到它可作为对话的后续提问。B项“这是开启新的谈话话题的好方法”强调该方法开启新话题的作用，与下文逻辑一致。
18. 上文建议使用开放式问题，下文举例对比封闭式问题和开放式问题。D项“你最好避免问用一个词就可以回答的问题”直接对应keep them open ended，说明封闭式问题的弊端。
19. 空后提示这里介绍第三个技巧，针对对话突然中断的情况提出建议。F项“在最糟糕的情况下，当谈话突然停止时，使用挽救性问题。”直接点明方法，与下文“How do you guys all know one another？”的例子匹配。
20. 上文说明通过对方的反应找到对话方向，G项“他或她的语气和热情会告诉你继续对话的最佳方向”与上文逻辑衔接。

第一节
21—25 CADCD　26—30 ABCBD　31—35 CBABD
【语篇导读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章通过前国际空间站指挥官Scott Kelly的经历，讲述了科学职业并非只有有天赋或聪明的学生才能从事，只要有决心并付诸努力，每个人都可以学习科学并取得成就。
21. unusual不寻常的；abnormal异常的；wrong错误的；illegal非法的。根据上文“Careers in science are generally believed to be too complex for students who aren't talented or clever enough”及转折词but可知，人们通常认为科学职业对没有天赋或不够聪明的学生来说太复杂了，但Scott Kelly会证明这种观点是错误的。
22. subjects科目；goals目标；schedules时间表；students学生。根据上文uninterested in science及空后as well可知，他不仅对科学不感兴趣，对其他所有科目也不感兴趣。
23. work on致力于；set about开始；think about考虑；focus on集中注意力。根据下文spending most of his time in school daydreaming可知，他大部分时间都在做白日梦，所以无法集中注意力听老师说话。
24. expect期待；acknowledge承认；fulfill实现；observe观察。根据上文“he earned terrible grades and barely graduated from high school”可知，他成绩糟糕，勉强毕业，所以他认为自己永远不会实现自己的梦想。
25. finished完成；realized意识到；happened发生；changed改变。根据下文“he was determined to be an astronaut”和started getting straight A's in science可知，他决心成为一名宇航员并取得好成绩，所以这一切都改变了。
26. Inspired受启发的；Disappointed失望的；Satisfied满意的；Shocked震惊的。根据下文“he was determined to be an astronaut”可知，他受到《太空先锋》这本书的启发，决定成为一名宇航员。
27. gave up放弃；made up构成；formed into形成；got into进入。根据下文to do well in it可知，他下定决心要在科学课上做好。make up one's mind to do sth表示“下定决心做某事”。
28. possible可能的；difficult困难的；easy容易的；wonderful精彩的。根据上文After so many years of daydreaming及常识可知，经过多年的白日梦，要在科学课上做好并不容易。
29. planned计划；practiced练习；arranged安排；exchanged交换。根据下文“the more he gained and the better he got”可知，他通过练习学习技巧，收获越多，学得越好。
30. Particularly特别地；Surprisingly出人意料地；Fortunately幸运地；Eventually最终。根据上文“But he started thinking about it like a game.”可知，起初的尝试最终成了一种自我较量。
31. principle原则；deal交易；competition竞争；compromise妥协。根据下文to see how good he could get可知，他与自己展开了一场竞争。
32. real真实的；former以前的；formal正式的；last最后的。根据上文After so many years of daydreaming可知，他以前经常做白日梦，所以此处指曾经的白日梦者。
33. furthering增强；breaking打破；commenting评论；making制作。上文提到“科学职业通常被认为对于没有天赋或不够聪明的学生来说太复杂了，但前国际空间站指挥官Scott Kelly会证明这是错误的”，所以我们应该停止进一步传播这样的言论。
34. apply申请；ignore忽略；return返回；handle处理。根据上文“If you're students who have been told ‘you are not a science person’ or ‘your brain doesn't think that way’”可知，如果被告知自己不是学科学的料，就应该忽略这些评论。
35. forced被迫的；expected预期的；equal平等的；willing愿意的。根据上文“Everyone who wants to can learn this stuff”可知，每个想学的人都可以学习这些东西，只要他们愿意去做这项工作。be willing to do sth表示“愿意做某事”。

37. 考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。本句在陈述事实，时态用一般现在时；主语The origins of shadow play与谓语believe为被动关系，所以用一般现在时的被动语态；且主语是复数，be动词应用are。
38. 考查连词。根据语境可知，前后谓语部分为并列关系，用and连接。

I_didn't_know_whether_to_stay_or_not. The thought of exploring new places and creating lasting memories with my family was undeniably inviting. However, it was obviously too challenging for me to step onto that glass. As I weighed the options in my mind, my mother's words echoed in my ears, reminding me of the courage and confidence I used to have. With a deep breath, I made up my mind that I would seize this opportunity and embrace the adventure that awaited me in Macau.
I_was_totally_struck_by_the_view_unfolding_before_my_eyes. My eyes were immediately drawn to the magnificent structure that stood tall in the city center—Macau Tower. Its charm was without equal, its soaring height dominating the skyline. I couldn't help feeling a mixture of awe and admiration. I reminded myself of the encouragement from my loved ones. As we left the tower, I expressed my gratitude to my mother for her consistent support. She taught me an important lesson that day—with a little encouragement, we can achieve extraordinary things.
